Two Blocks Are Accelerated Across a Horizontal Frictionless Surface as Shown.Frictional

question 13

Multiple Choice

Two blocks are accelerated across a horizontal frictionless surface as shown.Frictional forces keep the two blocks from sliding relative to each other,and the two move with the same acceleration.If F = 1.2 N and M = 1.0 kg,what is the horizontal component (frictional force) of the force of the large block on the small block?

• A)0.40 N to the left
• B)0.80 N to the right
• C)0.40 N to the right
• D)0.80 N to the left
• E)1.20 N to the left

Definitions:

Germinal Period

The initial two weeks of prenatal development after conception, characterized by rapid cell division and the beginning of cell differentiation.

Fetal Stage

The fetal stage is the last stage of prenatal development, beginning in the ninth week of pregnancy and continuing until birth, characterized by rapid growth and maturation of organs and body systems.

Embryonic

Pertains to the earliest stage of development, typically before birth, often used in biology to describe the early stages of an organism's development.

Germinal

Pertaining to the earliest stage of development, particularly right after fertilization in organisms.
